It really depends what one’s doing, also. For many things, including many games, 30fps is fine for me. But I need at least 60fps for mousing. Beyond that though I don’t notice the mouse getting smoother above 60fps, but some games I do have a better experience at 120fps. And I’m absolutely sold on 500+ fps for simulating paper.

If someone’s saying that about 30fps they should just set their refresh rate to 30 and move their mouse.

Not to take away from your entirely valid point, but most people don’t know that most small airplanes still use leaded gasoline and that the EPA found that “Lead emissions from aircraft are an important and urgent public health issue.”

The lead levels near general aviation airports are a big problem, and airport proximity tends to have a negative effect on property values, which combine to be an equity issue - children born into poorer households are more likely to live right near airports than those in wealthier households, and thus they’re likely to have higher blood lead levels.

Worse still, while some of these aircraft are important (pilot training, connecting island communities where boats aren’t feasible for large chunks of the year), many of these aircraft are primarily used for hobby flying, meaning that wealthy people who fly as a hobby are poisoning poorer communities with lead (often unknowingly, as they don’t necessarily know that this is a problem).

The FAA approved an unleaded 100 octane avgas in 2022. Something most people reading this can do is find out who owns their local municipal airport and demand that they convert to only unleaded avgas.

I don’t know where this is, but often this has to do with local alcohol laws. At restaurants with patios or sidewalk seating you’ll often see “no alcohol beyond this point” signs for the same reason. They can serve you alcohol, but they have to keep you within a certain space while you’re consuming it.

I don’t have time to get out a million little differently sized utensils because I need 2 cups of this, ¼ cup of that, ½ a teaspoon of the third thing etc. when I can put the bowl on a kitchen scale and use the tare function.

I am hopeful that some further work on RISC-V gets some more competition in the space.

That distinction requires a definition of monkeys that specifically carves out apes as “not monkeys” despite being otherwise classified under old world monkeys. By sensible definitions, apes are monkeys.

40 teabags? What, are you shopping for more tea twice a day?

KDE Connect or Nextcloud. My phone has USB 2, but I can easily top 1 Gbit/s over wifi.

I learned lolcode in college because we had to write a sorting algorithm in assembly and “any other programming language.”

The real key is to get 3 different cheeses that look different. They don’t have to be fancy cheeses. They just have to be obviously different cheeses.

Likewise, get some salami and another meat.

SHAL HONK NEMRON!

Iridium quality cereal? ConcernedApe is so good to us!

I’ve had cats my whole life and have never had one mess with my properly placed toilet paper.

As someone who immigrated to the US as a child, if leaving the US is even 10% as difficult for me as coming was for my parents, I don’t think I’m capable of it despite having a fully remote job at a global company.

There was a strong pro-Nazi contingent amongst (mainly) Afrikaans-speaking South Africans. That’s not to say by any stretch that Afrikaners were mostly pro-Nazi, though. Jan Smuts was an Afrikaner and was both a Field Marshal in the South African defence forces and the prime minister during WW2 - he wasn’t exactly pro-British (he fought against them in the second Boer war), but he was very strongly anti-Nazi.

The best version of the Signal app was back when it was available as an actual web app.
